    Jaw drop. This place is NYC/SF league. Brio Chinotto. Spiced green olives, four flavors, in tubs…read more Italian groceries packed into the tiny place. Fresh figs. That's just the weirds stuff that I like... the FOCACCIA -- they're baking it right there! There's only two sandwiches. This is a GOOD THING... meat or veggie. Apart from amazing -- small detail: romaine, crispy, super fresh... the meats and veggie patty: great recipe. This all before mentioning their namesake dish... pasta... six feet away from the baking, a lady pulling noodles out of a pasta machine, which I'll have to experience next time.

    Since moving to Toronto, I miss Pasta Genova deeply…read more They have some of the very best focaccia anywhere, which alone is enough to recommend them. But they also have nearly peerless homemade pastas (of which the smoked paprika linguine is my favourite, though they often only make it by request), spectacular prepared sauces, and regular specials on essentials that will get you things like premium olive oil or balsamic vinegar* at supermarket prices. * Genova is one of the few places I've regularly found a variety of pure, aged balsamic vinegar free from sulphites. AWESOME. So, here's some tips: 1) They ONLY TAKE CASH, no exceptions. I once witnessed a woman curse them out for this fact and declare she'd tell all her friends not to shop there; when she left, everyone in the tiny shop, myself included, burst out laughing, and one of the guys declared "we can barely keep up with the customers we have, we don't need her!". Very jovial, and they took her bitch-fest so perfectly in-stride they could give lessons on how to turn the other cheek. 2) If you need a quick lunch, pick up a focaccia sandwich -- they're about $4 if memory serves, with salami, lettuce, tomato, and mustard, and they're fantastic! If you want to suddenly realize you're hungry, walk down Wellington around 11:00am for the wafting glory of baking focaccia and just try to resist the pull. 3) When ordering pasta instead of ordering by weight, order by serving size. Say things like "I'm having a dinner party for six, four big eaters and two regular", and they'll give you an incredibly accurate amount of what you need, plus a little extra (because people WILL want seconds, believe me!). 4) Their homemade calabrese olives are out of this world good. They use a puree of oil-marinated chilis, oregano, fennel (I think), and oil, and very, very good sun cured olives... and damn, these things are so good I eat them until I hurt. 5) Ask what's on special, or if they have any leftovers. I've scored half servings of pasta, day old (but still delicious) focaccia, and nearly expired but still awesome cheese for cheap. Finally, I'll also mention that the staff here are fabulous -- very nice people who greet with a smile, always bid a good day, and work diligently to help provide you with exactly what you need to hit a homerun with whatever it is you're cooking. Only downside: Toronto Maple Leaf fans. Egads!

    Came here on a friend's recommendation and I didn't love the food. We were seated on a quaint…read morewaterfront patio and and setting was lovely. Unfortunately, the food didn't match the setting as it was just subpar. Maybe it's too much to expect Toronto quality Italian food in Trenton, but everything from the tomato sauce in the lasagna (way too acidic), ho hum aglio olio for the California fettucine and lack of simple garden salad (what kind of Italian place only serves Caesar salad or Greek salad?) just didn't do it for me. My fettucine was undercooked (not even close to being al dente), the chicken breast was dry and the overall seasoning was weak. Even with the addition of giant slivers of Parmaggiano didn't do much to elevate the dish. I would have sent the dish back if we weren't in a rush to finish our meal and get back on the road. The Margherita pizza was the best part of this dinner sadly. I'm not sure if we'll be back in Trenton again any time soon, but I will be looking for other options than Tomasso's.

    It was a group of 24 for lunch, we had two great servers, the food was good and because of our…read moregroup size we had the back room to ourselves which enabled us to do speeches, introduce each other etc. The only downfall was the bright sun coming in at the ladies by the window. I would say the biggest downfall was paying 11$ for a 6 oz glass of wine, absolutely ridiculous!!

    After a roller coaster ride of a series.. Its come to the deepest of sorrrows. Lady Food has…read morecompleted the 6 seasons of the Sopranos. Not only has it moved her to start her own "waste management" company, and hire her own "body guards" but has inspired her to eat like the mafia. She would be yellin at canoli, tomatoes, lasagna, gabbagool and all the pasta you could say "fuggt about it," to. This new mood inspired Corn Food to attend a higher class Italian eatery, which the food was expectin to get him a whaccckkin. Lady food and The food, were greeted by the most welcoming gangster a world could ask for, Food shall call him Joey. Joey lead us to a private table and told us to relax, he'd send someone over to "take care of us." This was it, the food was finally going to get whacked... The food braced as the server attended.. But instead of a whackin the server asked us what we wanted for drinks.. The Food had an old style cappuccino, very beepadee boppa. Lady food had a wine.. Which wasnt actually yuck, it was aiight. Then it came time for the orderin to begin. Lady food swooped in like a hawk and knew what she wanted, a dope looking pasta dish with bacon and some sauces, it was good.. But, as per NATO standard, lady food didnt finish it.. Wamppppp. The Food didnt know what to order so, the food played waiter roulette, which turned out to be the best seafood pasta the food has ever had.. Over all, the restaurant was 10/10 pleasing in everyway. The food shall return to play waiter roulette once again. Get outta here food. Food out.

    Let me preface by saying that this was our third visit to Linguine's and it's the first time we…read morewere disappointed. Maybe the chef was having a bad night and they were understaffed but my whole meal was undercooked, the calamari was small pieces of seafood and very over breaded. Server was nice but we waited over twenty minutes for our bill and she only came to the table once. She was apologetic.
